It occurs to me that TRANS hatred is the thin wedge back to homophobia: That hatred of Muslims is similarly an excuse to return to Jim Crow.

Ironically those that would respond with violence to this egregious war would undermine their very cause. THIS time no one chooses suspend their cognitive faculties to believe in WMDs. THIS war is also criminal but world wide peaceful demonstration is the way forward.

Next week I get my gall bladder removed having paid into my health service for most of 50 years. I have had a couple of hernias fixed, an appendectomy, a broken elbow reset & treatment for a broken fibula, plus access to a free doctor. Add to that cheaper dentistry. I am NOT bankrupt.

My (fascist!) friend (an immigrant to Cyprus) is right: 41000 coming across the English Channel in small boats is WRONG. So our Labour government is taking action on multiple fronts. ALL GOOD. However, he wants those small boats to be stopped on the high seas. Difficult, but with goodwill, why not?

If the suspect’s family didn’t turn him in, he’d probably still be on the loose thanks to Keystone Kash.

He was a source of insider information between his rich clients. The reward for their financial infidelities was the young women and underage girls to be used with complete discretion. Of course, once they partook, they KNEW they were in a database.

I just watched "End of the Road". Not a great film by any means. The family is 'on the road' to Texas because ill-health, chemo & treatment of father has bankrupt them.

Turns out EYES WIDE SHUT (1999) is a true story. Not idle speculation or merely Kubrickian paranoia. That movie is about the catastrophic damage that happens when one merely 'brushes up against' the powerful. It's a terrible and ugly truth and we must face it collectively and courageously.

“As the airplane took off, Epstein started touching me forcibly in between my legs, and I freaked out. I realized, this is not a modeling opportunity, I've been kidnapped. They whisked me away to the island. I was stuck there. They never arranged any modeling opportunities, I was completely conned."

I like the idea of a kind of General Staff. It is said that Napoleon would *never* have beaten the German organisation of its General Staff. bonuses Semi-autonomous units run by its (well-paid + bonuses) workers with minimal & accountable management supervision could be a model for the future.

As a lawyer, he is adopting a World view. In some countries the age of consent is lower. As a defence for the manipulation of those under 16, 17-18, even 19-21, by rich, middle-aged men it lacks something. Humanity?

Alleged. The files have been redacted! Incidentally, once, in an avant garde art gallery in Liverpool, I came across a large Bible in which someone had snopaked/tipexed every vowel. Is s/he now working for Trump?

My fit nephew, 21 yo, lost a testicle coz he got Mumps. He was in a bad way but recovered in an ICU. He's now, +10 years, the proud father of 2 kids. His mum, (MOM?), my sister, forgot to get him his second booster vaccine. Incomplete immunisation. Imagine how she would have felt if he died?

Foreign Aid directed to the UN World Food Program saves money by helping & feeding people where they WANT to live: AT HOME. Less economy migration; less internecine war over resources; happier, healthier people contributing to their village town & country. Yes: look after OUR poor too.
